Abstract

Unsuccessful therapeutic abortion resulting in continued viability of the fetus is rare. No case of a live birth after unsuccessful vacuum curettage has been published. We report two cases with persistent pregnancies after failed termination, with outcomes complicated by premature rupture of membranes and preterm delivery.
